Scenario Analysis Manager (SAM) BMP Additions and Enhancements

The goal of this work order is to make additions and enhancements to the Scenario Analysis Manager (SAM) tool best management practice (BMP) database and the methodologies used for the application of the BMPs. The additions and enhancements will involve addition of new BMP types, addition of flow reduction efficiencies, enhancement of septic system alternatives, enhancement of artificial drainage and riparian buffer suitability estimates, enhancements to the cost optimization including multi-parameter cost optimization, and output tables of SAM-predicted nutrient and sediment reductions per unit of adoption for each modeled watershed.
